Tried this for the first time. Cooked over a grill pan in addition

I microwave with soaked paper towels. And then 15 minutes total on the grill pan at medium heat.

Parsley and italian seasoning.

I wanted a short meal in the morning. Time to sleep now. :3

I guess I like how it was dry because it made eating plain potatoes palatable. The flavor was interesting. I don't like my food too greasy, and the grill pan helped with that.

The taste was weird though I dunno. Maybe I never really liked browned potato that much. I'm pretty sure I didn't overdo the temperature for the olive oil.

It took so long though. Maybe I'll use a higher heat oil next time, although I'm not sure my non-stick pan can deal with the higher heat.

Anyone have something to say? I never post on this board. This probably isn't even a good time to post food, lol.

I like baked potatoes so I don't know how this was different. The browning makes the potato taste like too much or something.

It's a slow board and it's early morning in the Americas

I don't have anything to say. It looks good, I would probably eat it.

WOW. POTATOES?! FANTASTIC.

>>7396224

slice them thinner if you want them to cook faster

Quality posts, faggot.

How about the next time you make a PBJ you write a book about it?

>>7396224
Way too many herbs but the potatoes look cooked so I guess it's a win.

Way to much seasoning, thats super excessive. I dont understand why you would microwave them?

I make fried potatoes weekly and have never had an issue with them being undercooked. I tend to cut them into smaller cubes, then fry for 10-15 mins. I put some paprika/mixed herbs on it.

Wow it's fucking shit. Pretty cool that you took pictures of potatoes using another potato, though.

It's a mix of critique and shitposting. Welcome to 4chan.

Maybe a little garlic powder before mic'ing the spud slices?
Try peanut oil or coconut for the fry part.
Lose the non-stick pan for browning stuff.

Kek, this funny. I laughed heartily when i saw this in the morning.

>>7396489
Thanks donatello. But I needed the potatoes to fit all on one plate in the microwave, so I don't have to do more than one batch. To cook evenly, I put them in a circle, not piled too high.

I put a light layer of italian and a ton of parsley because you can't have too much parsley on potato.

I microwave because it takes only 6 minutes for 3-3.5 sliced potatoes. Faster cooking with the microwave preserves more of the vitamins. Minerals are also kept more compared to boiling in a pot of water. Healthier and more filling.
I microwaved a little less because I was frying them as well.

I'm enjoying it regardless.

>>7397785
You mean before I put the oil on them? Won't the garlic flavor be burned off by the frying?
I used pic related.

I figured out from the last two answers how a grill pan is useful for vegetables. I don't have a grill pan that isn't non-stick.

Plus, the water steamed from the vegetable will evaporate out instead of cooking the food. Since I wanted to fry, not sweat.

So yeah I'll have to buy those other oils. I don't think coconut is much better, unless it's refined.
The grill pan I have is non-stick, but it's good quality so I'm sure it can handle a medium-high temperature.

Maybe I'll do that when I try caramelizing, to help offset the taste. I'll fry first then caramalize at a lower temperature with butter and some sort of sugar.
I'll have to switch from the grill pan to a saute pan.

Does carmelized maple syrup and garlic powder go together? I don't know if I could handle so much flavor.
